New York City: I recently heard a caller on one of those radio talk shows say something like this about New York City: Police routinely stop people on the street and ask for identification.

Is that true? Just trying to get the facts straight. Thanks. mirse

That caller needs to get off drugs, or is just making it up. They tow cars a lot (not really part of the regular NYPD), and frankly are real heroes going after violent criminals in the bad parts of town. But stopping on the street for ID? Someone "misspoke."

Hmmm, I’ve never seen that in N.Y., but I don’t live there, do you? Regardless, that is not what the AZ. law does. It’s not a “stop someone on the street and harass them” law, as the MSM would like you to believe.

When looking for the truth, though, look to what the law says, rather than what the MSM and this administration would like you to believe it says.

The AZ. law is about 10 pages in length and prohibits racial profiling.
